MARINA AT THEHEART OF RIGA

City Yacht Club in Riga, Kipsala is one of the largest and most modern nautical clubs in the Baltic sea. It is situated just 15 minutes walk away from the city centre and Old Riga, in a quiet and clean area - Kipsala island. Enjoy exciting city life in the centre and have a good rest when you come back to your boat in City Yacht Club. You can observe a unique view to Riga Old City silhouette, from the yacht club marina. A rare case in Europe - the silhouette stayed almost untouched since the Middle Ages.

There is a sandy beach next to the Club where you can play volleyball or just enjoy the sun.

Marina can host for up to 200 yachts with a draft of up to 3.8 meters. We have hosted one of the largest offshore regattas in the Baltic Sea - Moonsund regatta nish in 2017 with more than 100 yachts in the harbour.

We host sailing school for children 7-13 years old and provide all necessary equipment for "Optimist" sailing trainings and regattas. We are proud to have national champions at our club and organise local and national Optimist sailing regattas during summer. City Yacht Club organises captains' theoretical and practical courses three times per year during winter and spring time. You can obtain ICC certificate after successful examination. City Yacht Club is built and supported by the Freeport of Riga Authority.
